Oriel Beth Horrocks Gallery | Caernarfon
North Wales artist Beth Horrocks was raised on Anglesey, spending her formative years exploring and investigating the beauty of her surroundings.
The motion of the waves, the sounds as they crash into the shore; the variable aspects of something so transfixing has continued to play a large role in her life. The natural world is adept at portraying innumerable moods and intensities, and these depths of emotion have found their way into Beth’s depictions of North Wales in her artwork.
​
Visit Beth at her newly opened studio in the heart of Caernarfon, a two minute walk from Caernarfon castle.
